Joshua Sasse faced an uncomfortable moment during a recent appearance on The Morning Show when host Kylie Gillies brought up his past engagement to pop icon Kylie Minogue. The British actor, 37, was promoting his new series Outrageous when the conversation took a cringe-worthy turn.

After discussing his role in the film Love Is in the Air with Delta Goodrem, Gillies remarked, “You must love working with Aussie singers because you were in a Kylie Minogue music video.” A baffled Sasse initially replied, “Was I?” before recalling, “Ohh yes, that happened. It was a last-minute thing.”

Gillies pressed further: “Were you dating? Because you dated there for a while.” Sasse confirmed, “Yes, we were engaged,” explaining the video came together spontaneously during their relationship.

Kylie Minogue and Sasse were engaged in 2016 before a rocky split.

The pair met in 2015 when Minogue, then 47, guest-starred on Sasse’s series Galavant. Their romance sparked quickly, with Sasse proposing just six months later. However, their engagement ended abruptly in 2017 amid rumors of infidelity. Though never confirmed, reports suggested Minogue suspected cheating, which Sasse never legally disputed.

Post-split, Sasse moved to Australia, marrying Louisa Ainsworth in 2018. The couple settled in Byron Bay and welcomed two children. However, their marriage recently unraveled. Last month, Sasse confirmed their separation hours after being photographed canoodling with a local woman at a beach park.

Sasse appeared flustered when questioned about Minogue.

The beach incident showed Sasse and the woman—who is also married—sharing an intimate moment, including her touching his chest under his shirt. Sasse later stated the separation from Ainsworth was mutual and respectful.

Despite the personal turbulence, Sasse continues to focus on his career, with Outrageous marking his latest project. Yet, the interview’s awkward detour proves his past with Minogue remains a lingering topic.

Key Points:

• Sasse and Minogue’s whirlwind engagement ended in 2017.
• He later married Louisa Ainsworth, but they split in 2025.
• Recent photos sparked controversy ahead of his TV appearance.

The segment concluded with Sasse steering the conversation back to his work, but not before viewers glimpsed the lingering shadows of his headline-making romantic history.
